CMOS RAM Drain J43
Normal Operation (factory setting) Short Pins 1-2
Drain CMOS RAM Short Pins 2-3
Caution
Make sure that power is turned off before draining
CMOS RAM power. After draining CMOS RAM,
make sure that pins 1-2 are shorted before turning
power on again.
If you forget the system password in most computers, you must remove the battery for at least 20 minutes to erase CMOS RAM.
J43 provides a quicker method. By shorting pins 2-3 of J43, you can quickly drain power from CMOS RAM. After clearing CMOS RAM,
remember to short pins 1-2 of J43 before continuing.
Then you must run WINBIOS Setup to reconfigure the computer.
